Freedom Within
Freedom can be found within you
When you let go of what binds you
Maybe a purpose, you once sought
That only leads to doors closing
Recognizing time spent was ok then
But maybe, not so much for now
When you release yourself from things
That are not working anymore
To see the difference between a challenge
And something that truly cannot happen
But it is surely far from giving up
I guess it is to know when to stop
And to know when to start new again
Something fulfilling and peaceful
Something that reaches far or near
Something that is attainable
Bringing simple calmness within you
Not a rush or a fight or battle from inside
Even when your strength plays tricks,
As if you can do more than you can do
Freedom comes from deciphering
What means most to us, adjusting to changes
All in time, being true to ourselves
Letting go and then re-discovering
That something special, that sets your soul free
